Functional morphology and biomechanics of the locomotor apparatus in the large Late Triassic carnivore Postosuchus kirkpatricki (Archosauria: Rauisuchidae)

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
A three‐dimensional model is used to analyze the locomotor biomechanics of the large Late Triassic archosaurian reptile Postosuchus kirkpatricki. The study finds that it is more uncertain than previously concluded whether it was quadrupedal or bipedal, and plantigrade or digitigrade, but it clearly had locomotor specializations including large hindlimb

Comparison of the Short- and Long-Term Effects of Radiofrequency Thermocoagulation and Intralesional Cryoablation Treatments on Pain Management and Functional Recovery in Patients Diagnosed With Calcaneal Spur: Retrospective Study

Pain Research and Management
Calcaneal spur is an important cause of chronic pain that is resistant to conservative treatments and reduces quality of life. Nerve ablation techniques are widely used in chronic pain.

Cumulative effects of lifelong systemic excess growth hormone on postcranial skeletal morphology in adult mice

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Our μCT‐based pilot study reveals size and shape disparity in the adult postcranial skeleton of growth‐hormone model (bGH) mice relative to wild‐type mice. bGH mice have larger and more sexually dimorphic bones, with a systemic radiodensity increase in bony sesamoids and associated, but typically uncalcified, soft tissues.

Osteoporosis and Periodontitis: Two‐Way Epidemiological and Mechanistic Evidence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review investigates the main mechanistic pathways connecting local periodontitis to systemic osteoporosis. Seven interconnected mechanisms are identified. ABSTRACT Osteoporosis and periodontitis are highly prevalent, chronic inflammatory diseases that constitute a major global health burden.

The relationship between pes planus and calcaneal spur to plantar heel pain

Acta Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica, 2021
Hindfoot lateral radiographs of 73 patients with plantar heel pain, 29 of whom have bilateral involvement ( 102 feet ) ranging in age from 20 to 60 were studied and compared with 120 normal subjects ( 240 feet ).

Effect of In-Shoe Foot Orthosis Contours on Heel Pain Due to Calcaneal Spurs

Applied Sciences, 2019
The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of contouring the shoe insole on calcaneal pressure and heel pain in calcaneal spur patients. Calcaneal pressure was measured using three force sensors from 13 patients including three males and 10

Effect of artificial gravity on calcaneal bone marrow adipose tissue and mineral content in female and male participants in 60 days of bed rest

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Modulation of bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) with prolonged inactivity was reported in haemopoietic but not in non‐haemopoietic bones. This prospective randomized controlled trial submitted 16 men and 8 women to 60 days of 6° head‐down‐tilt bed rest.
